Escalation in Homs: Israeli Strikes Target Central Syria

Reports from Syria indicate that Israeli strikes have targeted residential buildings in Qusayr, located in the southern countryside of Homs province. While Israel refrains from commenting on specific incidents, it has consistently conducted strikes against Iranian-linked targets in Syria over the years.

Syrian state news agency (SANA) has reported that Israeli strikes targeted several residential buildings in Qusayr, a town in the southern countryside of Homs province. This incident marks yet another escalation in the region.

Israel traditionally does not offer specific comments on such reports but has maintained a long-standing campaign of airstrikes in Syria. The strikes aim to dismantle what Israel perceives as Iranian-linked threats within the country.

This recent flare-up heightens tensions in a volatile area already marked by years of conflict and foreign involvement.
